Extends the multi-profile MCP paragraph with the identity rules landed in
this branch: OAuth tokens live per profile so each profile's calls run as
its own account; client_cert/client_key are part of the connection
identity; trust and supports_parallel_tool_calls are the consuming
profile's policy even when it shares another profile's connection.
Wording of the per-profile OAuth account guarantee follows the docs draft
in PR #109574 (its token-file fingerprint code path was not taken).

`main` is a valid profile name (only hermes/default/test/tmp/root/sudo are
reserved), but _session_key_namespace mapped it to `agent:main` — the default
profile's namespace. Both profiles then built byte-identical keys: one routing
entry, one cached agent, and, since 75ae2859b9 pinned default-namespace
keys to the launch store, profiles/main's scoped sessions were written into
the ROOT state.db instead of profiles/main/state.db.
Key the `main` profile as `agent:main~` (`~` is outside the profile-id
alphabet, so the marked form cannot be any other profile's id) and give the
namespace slot one inverse, profile_from_session_key_namespace, used by the
store's key parser, _parse_session_key, the update-marker profile reader and
the profile-delete eviction prefix. Default keys stay byte-identical.
The raw-output watcher modes (all/result/error) and the interim running
update sent the bracketed debug wrapper with the internal process id
(`[Background process proc_… finished with exit code N~ Here's the final
output: …]`) to Telegram/Discord/Slack chats. Reuse the concise one-line
status header for every mode and append the bounded, ANSI-stripped output
tail in a code block; the running update gets the same shape.
Salvaged from #54266 (rebased onto the post-#102117 run_notifications
sibling; the concise mode had landed in between, so the header is shared
rather than reimplemented). Also covers #13122 (ANSI stripping).
Reshape the two salvaged commits onto current main (#109954):
- Move the boundary guard out of the gateway_migrate facade into a new sibling
hermes_cli/gateway_migrate_guards.py as a table of guard functions
(_AUTO_MIGRATION_GUARDS: service domain, UNIX user, HERMES_HOME tree) plus the
identity resolver. The facade grows by ~20 lines only (uid/runtime_home on
ProfileGateway, one seam, the hook wiring).
- Compare uids, not strings: live pid owner via /proc (ps fallback only on
macOS, where /proc does not exist), else the system unit's User= via
_read_systemd_user_from_unit (root when absent), else the home directory's
owner. None means unknown and never blocks.
- The home-tree guard reads the HERMES_HOME the installed unit pins, not the
directory the plan enumerated: that is where the gateway really runs and is
exactly the "stale copies under profiles/" shape from the report.
- When the default is detached, a service-managed secondary is a different
domain for the AUTO path (it must not elect the secondary's manager); the
explicit command keeps electing it as before.
- The explicit command surfaces the same findings as notices (dry run shows
them) and is never blocked by them; only the update hook refuses.
- Rename the opt-out key to gateway.auto_multiplex_migration (nested only, no
top-level alias) and read it before a plan is built, so false prints nothing
and touches nothing. The explicit command ignores it.
- Tests trimmed to the invariants: one parametrized boundary test that exercises
the real hook end to end (refuses, touches nothing, dry run shows the notice),
one "same user / same scope still migrates" control, one opt-out test.
- Docs: boundary table + renamed opt-out section in multi-profile-gateways.md;
one line in hermes_cli/AGENTS.md.

`hermes update` folds an eligible multi-profile install onto one multiplexed
gateway on its own, and there is currently no way to say no. The only lever,
`gateway.multiplex_profiles: false`, is also the default: `_read_multiplex_flag`
returns `False` for "absent" and for an explicit `false` alike, so an operator
who has already decided to stay on per-profile gateways has no way to record
that decision. The migration runs again on the next update.
Add `gateway.auto_migrate` (bool, default `true`). Read from the default
profile's config, it gates the automatic path only:
- absent or `true` -> today's behaviour exactly, no change
- `false` -> `maybe_auto_migrate_after_update()` returns before
building a plan; no output, no changes
`hermes gateway migrate --multiplex` is an explicit request and still migrates
regardless of the flag, so it stays the supported way to opt back in.
One early return, one schema entry with the reasoning inline, one invariant
test (opt-out blocks the hook, absent/true do not, explicit command still
applies), one section in the multi-profile gateways guide.
`hermes sessions export --session-id X <dir>/` crashed with IsADirectoryError
because jsonl/html/trace opened the positional as a file while --help called it
an "output path" and md/qmd really do take a directory. An existing directory
(or one spelled with a trailing separator) now receives a default-named file
(`hermes_session_<id>.<fmt>`), and the help text spells out per-format what
OUTPUT means.
The troubleshooting entry told users to raise A2A_REPLY_TIMEOUT for long tasks,
which did nothing against the hardcoded 300s orphan sweep (#106972). Now that the
sweep derives its grace from the reply window and skips tasks with a live waiter,
state that contract next to the variable.
Skipping `tests/`, `spec/`, ... in EXCLUDED_DIRS made those trees
invisible to the guard, but `plugins_loader._load_directory_module`
sets `submodule_search_locations=[plugin_dir]`, so a plugin
`__init__.py` doing `from .tests import evil` imports and runs whatever
lives there: a `tests/evil.py` with a destructive root remove scanned
`dangerous` on main and `safe` on this branch. `_walk` also matched the
names at any depth, so `src/spec/handler.py` — plain runtime code — went
unscanned.
Keep scanning everything; instead cap a critical finding located under a
ROOT-level test dir at `high`, so the verdict is `caution` (confirmation
required, `--force` overridable) rather than the un-overridable
`dangerous`. Fixture strings still cannot brick an install, which was
the reported problem, while a critical in any runtime file (`setup.sh`,
`src/spec/...`) still yields `dangerous`. Trade-off stated in the PR
body: hostile code deliberately placed under `tests/` is now
force-installable rather than blocked outright.
Docs no longer claim test code never runs.
User-visible scanner behaviour changed in this PR (test trees skipped, the block
reason names the critical rule ids), so the plugin docs say so in the same PR.
The served-set paragraph documented create and delete as live operations; rename now
follows the same unroute-before-mutate protocol, so say so where operators look for it.
The multiplex guide now says client_cert/client_key are part of the
"same credentials" test and states the OAuth rule as its own sentence;
the MCP config reference names the per-profile token directory and the
never-shared-across-profiles rule next to the OAuth behaviour list.

`kanban_request_review(artifacts=[...])` now preserves scratch deliverables
the same way `kanban_complete` does; say so where the scratch-workspace
lifecycle is documented.
Post-merge review of #109502 (gaoanze888) on current main, findings 1-3 and 5-11
(finding 4, the migrate manifest ordering, was already fixed by f9e47aa6fe).
Why:
- `--clone-all` used copytree(symlinks=True); a symlinked source `.env` was then
edited THROUGH the link by the channel strip, deleting the SOURCE's bot token.
Root files the clone edits (.env, config.yaml, auth.json, SOUL.md) are now
materialized as private copies before any write.
- The final profiles/<name> existed during the copy; the multiplexer rescans
profiles/ on create (#109239) and could adopt the half-copied tree and start
adapters on credentials not yet stripped. Clones are built in
profiles/.<name>.staging-<pid> (a leading dot never matches _PROFILE_ID_RE, so
profiles_to_serve never lists it) and published with one os.rename after the
strip; a failed create removes the staging tree.
- The live-multiplexer refusal for --clone-channels lived only in the CLI; REST
(POST /api/profiles) and the TUI (profiles.create) bypassed it. It now lives in
create_profile as profile_channels.clone_channels_refusal, raising ValueError
which every surface already maps to a 400 / 4062. --clone-channels without a
clone flag is an error instead of a silent no-op.
- Channel inventory is ownership-based, evaluated in the SOURCE profile's plugin
scope: private platform plugins under <source>/plugins/ contribute their keys
(previously discovered under the ambient HERMES_HOME); GATEWAY_ALLOW_ALL_USERS /
GATEWAY_ALLOWED_USERS and GATEWAY_RELAY_ID/SECRET/DELIVERY_KEY are channel
settings; alias prefixes SUPPLEMENT the canonical <PLATFORM>_ prefix
(WECOM_DM_POLICY, SMS_WEBHOOK_PORT now stripped). Prefixes shared with tools
(HASS_, TWILIO_, EMAIL_) are stripped only when the source's gateway would run
that adapter (enabled in config, or complete credentials and not explicitly
disabled); their allowlist/port keys are always channel-only.
- --clone-all state removal handled files only; Google Chat's directory-shaped
google_chat_user_tokens/ survived. Directories are removed too, without
following a copied symlink.
`scripts/run_tests.sh tests/<dir>/` is how a change gets its regression
coverage run, so a test filed under the wrong directory is a test nobody
runs when that code changes. Two kinds of drift had accumulated.
Parallel directories for one source package, folded into the mirror:
tests/acp -> tests/acp_adapter (its __init__/conftest move with it)
tests/cli -> tests/hermes_cli (prompt_toolkit fixture merged into
hermes_cli/conftest.py)
tests/run_agent -> tests/agent (backoff fixture becomes
agent/conftest.py)
tests/relay -> tests/gateway/relay
tests/state -> tests/hermes_state
246 loose files at tests/ root, routed by the package they import/patch:
hermes_cli, hermes_state, agent, gateway, tools, plugins, tui_gateway, cron.
Installer and desktop-update script tests go to tests/scripts/{install,
desktop_update}/. 43 tests of root-level modules (batch_runner, utils,
hermes_constants, packaging) stay at the root.
Filenames drop their issue numbers (95 files: test_89315_x.py -> test_x.py);
the number stays in the module docstring where it has context.
Collisions: test_cli_skin_integration.py existed in both tests/ and tests/cli
with different subsets — merged into one (10 tests, all kept);
run_agent/test_pre_compress_memory_context.py -> agent/..._handoff.py;
tests/test_account_usage.py -> agent/test_account_usage_fetch.py;
tests/test_web_server.py -> hermes_cli/test_web_server_ws_ping.py.
Deleted: test_minisweagent_path.py (empty since PR #2804),
test_model_picker_scroll.py (tested a private copy of the logic, imported
nothing), test_process_loop_event_loop_warning.py (asserted asyncio behaviour,
imported nothing from Hermes).
Repo-root path arithmetic (Path(__file__).parents[N], dirname chains) is
bumped for the 202 files that changed depth and verified by evaluating every
such expression against the new location. classify_changes' desktop-updater
lane prefix, tests-os.yml's ignore glob and every in-tree path comment follow
the moves. tests/test_tests_tree_layout.py keeps the tree from drifting back.
The cherry-picked commit added an `event_silence` probe dimension stamped from
`on_socket_raw_receive`. Two verified problems make it a regression rather than a fix:
- discord.py 2.7.1 dispatches `socket_raw_receive` only when the client is built with
`enable_debug_events=True` (client.py:330, gateway.py:410-412; the default
`log_receive` is a no-op). The adapter never sets it, so the stamp only ever moves at
`on_ready` and every healthy connection reads `event_silence` 300s later — a forced
reconnect every ~5 min. Live-verified against a real `commands.Bot` +
`DiscordWebSocket.received_message`: 6 frames delivered, stamp unchanged, probe unhealthy.
- discord.py already keeps a per-frame clock (`KeepAliveHandler._last_recv`) and closes the
socket itself after `heartbeat_timeout` without frames; and because ACKs are frames,
`ack_stale` (60s) always trips before `event_silence` (300s). A raw-frame stamp cannot
detect the "ESTAB + ACKing + zero events" incident by construction.
Kept and tightened the warning half: bool values (`float(True) == 1.0` silently enabled a
knob at 1s), negative ints, and unparsable strings now warn; an explicit `0` is the documented
opt-out and stays silent. Tests trimmed to the two invariant contracts (warn / don't warn),
proven red on origin/main. Docs updated to match.
The Gateway WS health probe sampled only transport state — ready, open,
heartbeat-ACK age, latency. A socket that stays ESTAB and keeps ACKing while
zero gateway frames arrive (the #109521 "connected-but-deaf" incident) read
healthy indefinitely, and the adapter went silent for hours with no log line
and no watchdog firing.
Two defects fixed:
1. Dispatch-side dimension. `on_socket_raw_receive` now stamps
`_last_gateway_frame_at` for every inbound raw gateway frame — heartbeats
and ACKs included, so a legitimately quiet server is not flagged. The
health check gains an `event_silence` reason with its own bound,
`websocket_event_max_silence_seconds` (default 300s, 0 disables the
dimension alone). The stamp resets on `on_ready` so a reconnect never
inherits pre-restart silence. Trip path is unchanged: consecutive
failures -> retryable `discord_websocket_health_stale` -> the existing
reconnect watcher builds a fresh adapter.
2. Silent probe disable. `_finite_positive_config_float` / `_config_int`
mapped anything `float()` rejects ("15s", "nan", "true") to 0.0 with no
log line, permanently disabling the watchdog invisibly. Unparsable and
non-positive values now log one WARNING naming the knob and raw value.
The new key rides the existing `_YAML_WEBSOCKET_LIVENESS_KEYS` seeding and is
documented in the Discord guide's liveness section.
The shared ensureContrast shipped the TUI's fine 0.05×20 ladder, which
changed --dt-primary-solid for 7 of 15 desktop presets (nous #3b6acb →
#3f70d8, cyberpunk #00661a → #008021, slate #505457 → #6f7377) while the PR
body said no preset VALUE changed. The ladder is now the desktop's original
algorithm exactly — pole by luminance < 0.5, accumulating 0.2 steps up to
1.0001, re-mixed from the source colour — with `step` as a parameter. The
only pre-refactor TUI caller (ColorChain.ensureContrast) passes 0.05, so
the terminal palette is byte-identical too.
Test: apps/desktop context.test.tsx iterates every builtin preset × mode,
paints it through ThemeProvider and asserts --dt-primary-solid equals the
value a reference copy of the old desktop algorithm computes. Sabotage
(default step 0.05): 11/30 rows fail. Docs: the SDK table now lists
contrastRatio as `number | null` under sRGB measures, not OKLCH.
A gateway with an OAuth MCP server whose refresh token expired opened a new
authorize tab every 300s, all night (92 tabs). Four defects stacked:
- The parked-server self-probe re-entered the SDK's authorization-code flow
with interactive OAuth enabled. The timed wake is unattended by definition:
`_wait_for_reconnect_or_shutdown` now distinguishes "self-probe" from an
explicit "reconnect", and `_park` flips the task-local
`_oauth_interactive_enabled` off before a self-probe revival.
- Gateway MCP discovery (startup, `/reload-mcp`, hot-added multiplex
profiles) ran interactive, unlike the CLI's background discovery. All three
now run under `suppress_interactive_oauth()`; an expired token parks with
the `hermes mcp login` hint instead of a browser.
- `_is_interactive()` trusted `sys.stdin.isatty()`, which the Windows CRT
reports True for a DEVNULL/detached stdin. `_stdin_is_console()` confirms
with `GetConsoleMode` on Windows.
- Removing an `mcp_servers` entry (or `enabled: false`) never reached a
running gateway; the parked server probed forever. New
`reconcile_mcp_servers_with_config()` tears down dropped/disabled servers
(via `shutdown_mcp_servers(names=...)`) and connects new ones; a
housekeeping chore runs it when config.yaml's (mtime, size) changes.
`_select_new_servers` also stops nudging disabled parked servers.
Fixes#81830. Fixes the browser-storm item of #96320.
The composer showed "<model> · Med" in one truncating pill and the only way
to change the effort was to open the model menu, find the active model's
row, and hover it for the per-row options submenu. Users read the pill as
"this model is medium only" and never found the submenu.
- New `ReasoningPill` next to the model pill: shows the active model's live
effort (session value, else the profile default) and opens the same
Thinking / Fast / Effort rows the catalog submenu offers, for the active
model only. Hidden when the catalog reports `reasoning: false`; stays
while capabilities are unknown so it never flickers during the fetch.
Folds away with the model pill in the compact composer stages.
- `useModelMenuController` (shell sibling) now owns the session write /
preset / optimistic-store / rollback logic that lived inside
`ModelMenuPanel`; the model menu and the new `ReasoningMenuPanel` share it
so an edit from either surface is one code path. Tiles get their own
pill bound to their SessionView, primary or tile — never the globals.
- `ModelOptionsContent` (the submenu body) is exported container-free so
the pill's top-level menu renders it without a Radix Sub wrapper.
- The model pill drops the effort suffix (`formatModelPillLabel`: name +
Fast); `formatModelStatusLabel` had no other caller and is removed.
- `currentModelCapabilities()` in lib/model-options resolves the active
pick's caps through `catalogProviderMatches` (aliases, custom slugs).
Live (headless Electron + worktree `hermes serve`, CDP): before — one
pill "Deepseek V4 Flash · Low", no effort control; after — "Deepseek V4
Flash" + "Low" pill; pick High → `config.get reasoning` on the live
session returns high; a `reasoning:false` cap unmounts the pill; the
catalog row submenu still writes through and the pill mirrors it.
Credit: the dedicated-pill direction was proposed independently in
composer selector on current main with the shared-controller shape.
docs/ was not the documentation site; it was a grab bag of long-form
design notes, wire contracts and observability guides that landed with
feature PRs because their authors needed somewhere to put them. Root
AGENTS.md already says long-form dev docs live in
website/docs/developer-guide/; this moves the 14 living documents there
(or to the matching user-guide section) so they are published, searchable
and linked from the sidebar instead of being found by grep only.
Developer guide: micro-compaction, gateway-session-lifecycle (was
session-lifecycle), state-db-recovery, multiplexing-gateway,
chronos-managed-cron-contract, relay-connector-contract, observer-hooks
(was observability/README), gateway-monitoring (observability/monitoring),
relay-shared-metrics, middleware, streaming-tts, billing-lifecycle.
User guide: egress/network-isolation (was security/network-egress-
isolation), features/kanban-multi-gateway (was kanban/multi-gateway).
Each page got title/description frontmatter and a sidebar entry; repo-
relative links became site links or GitHub blob URLs; two MDX brace
hazards escaped. Every in-tree pointer (module docstrings, config
comments, the relay conformance test's Path, the monitoring-doc test,
gateway-internals, cron-internals, kanban docs, .dockerignore, AGENTS.md)
now names the new location. `docusaurus build` passes with no unresolved
links on the moved pages.
Nothing in the tree reads any of these; they landed with feature PRs and
were never routed to their proper home.
- mcp-research-data/: 224K of July tool-search bench result rows. The
harnesses (scripts/tool_search_livetest_ue*.py) write their output to a
gitignored dir; the rows were committed by hand once and the headline
numbers already live in the bench commit messages.
- datagen-config-examples/: Feb 2026 RL datagen configs for a
WebResearchEnv that no longer exists; the yaml paths point at a
configs/ dir that was never created.
- docs/: ADR log with one entry, an implemented cron-doctor spec, an RCA
for a resolved bug, two RFCs whose work shipped, an unimplemented
profile-builder proposal, the kanban dialog mock HTML and the kanban v1
spec PDF. profile-routing.md duplicated the profile_routes section of
website/docs/user-guide/multi-profile-gateways.md.
Kanban docs and the `hermes kanban` parser description pointed readers at
the PDF; those now point at the user guide (the patterns table it was
citing is on that same page).
Three TypeScript clients each declared their own copy of the tui_gateway wire
types and had drifted apart: apps/shared had a partial GatewayEventName union
with a `(string & {})` escape hatch, ui-tui/gatewayTypes.ts a 150-line
discriminated union, and apps/desktop an `RpcEvent<T>` that was field-for-field
the shared GatewayEvent with `type: string`. None matched the emitter:
message.complete lacked warning/status/error/recoverable/error_surface,
tool.start/tool.complete lacked args/result, SessionResumeResponse lacked
session_key/messages_omitted/hydrating/auto_continue/todo_state, three
different ModelOptionProvider shapes disagreed on fields, and all three unions
handled a `tool.progress` event that no Python emitter has ever produced.
Now:
* `apps/shared/src/gateway-events.ts` is the single home: payload interfaces
typed from the Python emitters (file::symbol cited per interface),
`BackendGatewayEventMap` (89 backend names) + `ClientLocalGatewayEventMap`
(5 TUI-synthetic transport events, clearly marked, excluded from the
contract) merged into `GatewayEventMap`; `GatewayEvent<K>` is discriminated
on `type` with `seq` typed. RPC shapes shared by 2+ surfaces live beside it
(ModelOptionProvider = union of every field hermes_cli/inventory.py sets,
incl. pricing_pending/free_tier_pending; SessionResumeResponse<Info>;
SessionListItem with resolved_id; Usage).
* `JsonRpcGatewayClient.on<K>` is keyed by event name; the gateway.ready
heartbeat/replay_epoch and per-frame `seq` reads are typed instead of cast.
* ui-tui and apps/desktop import the shared names; their local duplicates are
deleted (no re-export shims — importers are repointed; the desktop plugin
SDK barrel keeps its public `RpcEvent` name as an alias of GatewayEvent).
web/src repoints ModelOptionProvider/ModelOptionsResponse.
* `tool.progress` handling is removed from the TUI handler/turnController,
desktop event sets/tools handler, shared union, tests, and two docs
(`grep '"tool.progress"' tui_gateway/` = 0 hits; the `display.tool_progress`
config mode is unrelated and untouched).
* `message.complete.warning` (history-commit note from
prompt_turn.py::_complete_turn_payload) is typed and surfaced on both
surfaces through their existing notice paths (TUI pushActivity 'warn',
desktop notify kind 'warning').
Contract: `apps/shared/src/gateway-events.json` is the sorted list of
backend-emitted names. `tests/tui_gateway/test_gateway_event_contract.py`
collects names from the Python emitter side (emit-helper literals, the
`.request → .expire` table, change-watcher table, child delta mirror,
subagent relay, desktop_ui tool emitters, gateway.ready/setup.ready/
browser-controller frames) and asserts emitted == JSON in both directions.
`apps/shared/src/gateway-events.test.ts` asserts BACKEND_EVENT_NAMES (which
the map type is `satisfies`-checked against) == JSON. Sabotage-verified: a
fake JSON name fails both tests; a fake TS name fails tsc + vitest; a fake
Python `_emit("...")` fails pytest.
Scoped secrets — `gateway.platforms._shared.get_scoped_secret` is the single implementation of
the "scope authoritative, unscoped default-profile falls back to os.environ" read:
- plugins/platforms/buzz/adapter.py::_get_scoped_secret (113 LOC, ~100 of which were one
docstring paragraph pasted 16x) -> 3-line forwarder over the canonical with
`external_fallback=True`. Its one genuine extra rung (one-shot profile-scope build so a
Bitwarden-managed key is visible to the startup gate, #95216) moves into `_shared` as that
keyword plus `_unscoped_profile_secrets`.
- weixin::_wx_secret, matrix::_startup_env_secret, the inline try/except copies in slack
(SLACK_APP_TOKEN) and telegram (TELEGRAM_WEBHOOK_SECRET/_URL) -> canonical.
- The "extra-first, then scoped env" reader written 11x under 6 names (weixin._extra_or_env,
bluebubbles/ntfy/photon/wecom `_setting`, dingtalk `_extra_get`, mattermost `_extra_or_env`,
slack `_extra_or_env_flag/_channel_set`, feishu closures) -> `_shared.extra_or_secret`.
- `authz_mixin._platform_gate_env` -> `_shared.platform_gate_env`; discord/telegram drop their
`_scoped_gate_env` twins; run.py / run_config_loaders.py / slack import it directly.
Boilerplate — three table-driven helpers in `_shared` replace the pasted docs template:
- `seed_extra_from_env(spec, home_env=)` replaces 8 `_env_enablement` bodies (buzz, google_chat,
irc, line, ntfy, photon, simplex, teams; raft is a one-liner and untouched).
- `apply_yaml_bridge(cfg, spec)` replaces 7 `_apply_yaml_config` bodies (buzz, dingtalk, feishu,
matrix, mattermost, slack, whatsapp); discord/telegram keep bespoke bridges (alias keys,
nested `platforms.*.extra`, generic-key exclusions). buzz and mattermost previously bypassed
`yaml_env_setter` with hand-rolled `os.environ` writes.
- `env_is_connected(*vars)` replaces 5 identical `_is_connected` (discord, homeassistant,
mattermost, slack, sms).
- 8 identity `_build_adapter` wrappers deleted; `adapter_factory=<Class>`.
Behavior change:
- buzz `_apply_yaml_config` returned None, so under multiplex a secondary Buzz profile got
neither env (correctly skipped) nor `extra` for relay_url/channels/allow_all_users/...; it now
seeds `extra` like every other hook. It also wrote reply_in_thread/reply_to_mode to the process
env even inside a secondary profile's scope (first-writer-wins leak, #80099 class); it no longer
does. BUZZ_POLL_INTERVAL is bridged through the same table.
- `home_channel.name` default when `<X>_HOME_CHANNEL_NAME` is unset is now the literal "Home" for
all plugins (irc/ntfy/buzz used the chat id; simplex/teams/photon/google_chat already used
"Home", as do the built-in platforms in gateway/config_env.py).
- weixin's non-secret tunables (send_chunk_*, rate_limit_circuit_*) now read through the scoped
reader instead of raw os.getenv — a secondary profile no longer inherits the default's values.
- `extra_or_secret` treats a blank string in extra as unset (falls to env) and an explicit False
as a real value, the strictest of the merged copies.
- slack `reaction_trigger_target` bridges via str(); `reaction_triggers` comma-joins any list-ish
value (was list/tuple/set only) — same env text for every real YAML shape.
Docs: website/docs/developer-guide/adding-platform-adapters.md (the template the copies were
pasted from) and gateway/platforms/ADDING_A_PLATFORM.md now show the helpers and the scoped
reader; gateway/AGENTS.md points at the one implementation.
Tests: tests/gateway/test_shared_platform_boilerplate.py — every plugin `_env_enablement`
reads only through the scoped getter (parametrized over the 8 plugins, spy on the seam, raw
`os.getenv`/`get_env_value` asserted untouched); buzz bridge seeds `extra` for a secondary
profile and still bridges env for the default; one home-name rule; extra_or_secret contract;
external_fallback rung. Existing tests repointed: tests/agent/test_secret_scope_tier1_migration.py,
tests/plugins/platforms/buzz/test_buzz_unscoped_requirement_gate.py.
computer_use kept its own approval decision: two module dicts
(_session_auto_approve / _always_allow) mirroring tools.approval's
session store and _persist_choice, a private verdict vocabulary
(approve_once/approve_session/always_approve) that hermes_cli mapped
back to once/session/always, and — the real problem — `if
_approval_callback is None: return None`. Only the interactive CLI ever
installed that callback, so every other host (gateway turns, cron,
api_server, tui_gateway, ACP) ran destructive desktop input with no
approval at all, ignoring cron_mode / unattended_mode / the permanent
allowlist, and "always" grants were invisible to `is_approved`,
`clear_session` and the messaging-platform approval buttons.
_request_approval now calls tools.approval._run_approval_gate with
pattern_key `cua:<action>:<background|foreground>` (the old scope shape,
so a background grant still never covers the visible foreground variant)
and fail_closed_when_no_human=True, the same posture as
request_tool_approval / the SSH-config write gate. The private dicts,
their release/atexit clearing, the verdict mapping in
hermes_cli/cli_modal_mixin.py and the extra callback install in cli.py
are deleted: the CLI's terminal_tool callback answers computer_use
prompts like any other tool. set_approval_callback stays as an optional
explicit-callback hook with the shared callback contract
(cb(command, description, **kw) -> once|session|always|deny|timeout);
no in-tree host uses it.
Behavior change:
- No approval callback and no gateway (cron, api_server/webhook,
headless -q, plain library use): destructive actions are now REFUSED
with a BLOCKED error and never reach the backend. Previously they
silently ran. cron honors approvals.cron_mode, unattended platforms
approvals.unattended_mode, -q approvals.single_query_mode.
- --yolo / gateway /yolo / approvals.mode: off still allow (unchanged).
- Gateway sessions (Telegram/Discord/Slack/...) now get a real pending
approval with once/session/always buttons instead of default-allow.
- session/always grants live in tools.approval's store; "always" is one
command_allowlist entry (`cua:click:background`) and is scoped to that
action+mode — the old blanket "always_approve unlocks everything for
the session" no longer exists.
- Denial wording is the shared gate's ("BLOCKED: User denied ...",
"BLOCKED: Action timed out ..."); the error JSON keeps `action`.
Tests: tests/tools/test_computer_use_approval_isolation.py
::test_no_callback_refuses_unless_yolo (blocked + no backend call, then
yolo executes) and ::test_always_grant_lands_in_the_shared_store
(is_approved sees the cua:<action>:<mode> key; second call served from
the store). Sabotage: restoring the `callback is None -> allow`
short-circuit fails the first; swapping the shared gate for a private
grant set fails the second plus the three delivery-ladder scope tests.
tests/tools/conftest.py gains `grant_computer_use_approvals` for
dispatch tests that only care about routing.
The developer guide showed the exact bare threading.Thread pattern the previous
commits removed from six in-tree providers; an external plugin copying it loses
the profile ContextVar under multiplex. Point it at
agent.memory_provider.spawn_context_thread and the canonical JSON/config writers.
`hermes update` printed "draining (up to 1875s)..." and then nothing for up
to 30 minutes while the gateway's in-band restart waited on in-flight work
(agent.restart_after_turn_timeout). Neither the updater nor the gateway log
said WHAT was being waited on, so a single long cron job read as a hung
update.
Gateway side: GatewayShutdownMixin._describe_active_work() enumerates each
unit the restart wait holds for — chat turns (session key, model, current
tool, elapsed), cron jobs (job id, elapsed, and the restart-safe external
worker pid when the run was handed off; cron/scheduler now records that pid
next to the running id), api/deferred runs by count. It is written to
gateway_state.json as `active_work` while the state is `draining` (cleared
otherwise) and appended to the 30s "Restart deferred" log line.
CLI side: hermes_cli/update_cmd_drain_report.py reads `active_work` and
prints a progress block every 30s during the SIGUSR1 exit wait — the
holder(s), their pids, elapsed time, seconds left before the forced
restart, and the config knob that caps the wait. Wired into the systemd,
launchd and manual gateway restart paths of `hermes update` and into
`hermes gateway restart`; `hermes gateway status` lists the same units
while draining. A pre-fix gateway (no `active_work` field) gets an explicit
"gateway did not report" line rather than silence.
Live A/B (real gateway, 90s no-agent cron job in flight, SIGUSR1 from the
caller): base = 79s of silence, no `active_work` in the state file; head =
the job named with pid/elapsed/remaining every interval, log line carries
the same detail.
Widens the new hook to the sibling interrupt surface: the TUI/desktop
session.interrupt path stops a live turn exactly like the gateway's
/stop, so plugins holding per-turn external resources get the same
signal there (platform='tui'). Gated on a genuinely running turn;
dispatch failures are swallowed so a plugin can never break the
interrupt. Docs updated to describe both surfaces.
Inspired by ChatGPT Work / Codex CLI 0.150.0 'Interrupt' hooks
(hooks that run when an active top-level turn is interrupted).
Reapplied onto current main. The branch had drifted ~3348 commits and a trial
merge produced 48 conflict markers, so this is the same change re-landed rather
than a rebase of the old history.
_interrupt_and_clear_session interrupts the running agent without signalling
plugins, so a plugin holding a per-turn external resource — an outbound RPC
waiting on a tool result the loop will never consume — has no way to learn the
turn is gone. Dispatch agent_loop_stopped immediately after
running_agent.interrupt(), gated on a real running agent: the pending-sentinel
/stop path has no in-flight work, so firing there would be noise.
Per review on #27208, the current helper's behaviour is preserved untouched —
multiplex-aware _adapter_for_source() resolution and cached-agent eviction both
still run; the hook is additive and its dispatch failures are swallowed so a
misbehaving plugin cannot break an interrupt.
Tests fail without the change (hook registration and dispatch) and pass with
it. The three failures in tests/hermes_cli/test_plugins.py::TestPluginDiscovery
are pre-existing on this checkout and reproduce with the change stashed.
The Matrix docs described six agent-exposed matrix_* tools and three MATRIX_TOOLS_ALLOW_* env gates that were never implemented — the tool names and gates appear nowhere in code. Docs now describe actual behavior: no Matrix-specific agent tools; reactions/redactions are internal to approval prompts and pickers; MATRIX_ALLOWED_ROOMS scopes responses. Fixes#100535.
Slack deprecates the Assistant messaging experience (assistant_view) in
February 2027: assistant.threads.setStatus/setTitle are replaced by
agents.sessions.setStatus/rename. slack-sdk 3.44.0 (Aug 27 2026) ships
the typed methods with drop-in-compatible signatures.
- adapter: capability probe on the AsyncWebClient CLASS (never instance —
mock auto-attributes lie), cached; status set/clear + thread title route
through agents.sessions.* when available, legacy otherwise
- pins: slack-sdk 3.43.0 -> 3.44.0 (pyproject messaging+slack extras,
lazy_deps, uv.lock)
- tests: autouse fixture pins the probe to legacy under the mocked SDK;
5 new tests cover both routing paths for typing, clear, and title
- docs: slack.md scope table + status-line notes mention both methods
Inspired by Claude Cowork (desktop changelog v1.46388.1, 2026-09-04), which
added "automatic re-runs (after 5, 15, and 30 minutes) for a scheduled task
that could not reach the model at all, for example right after the computer
wakes behind a VPN."
A recurring cron job whose run fails with a transient network/DNS error
before ANY model call previously sat out a full period (a daily job fired
into a reconnecting VPN silently skipped a day). Now the scheduler pulls
next_run_at earlier along a bounded 5/15/30-minute ladder, suppresses the
interim failure notice while a re-run is pending, and resets the ladder on
any run that reaches the model.
Deliberately narrower than a generic retry (cf. PR #16512): zero API calls +
transient classification means nothing executed and nothing was spent, so a
re-run cannot duplicate side effects. One-shots are excluded (at-most-times
dispatch accounting, #38758); retries never fire past the schedule's own
next occurrence; `cron.retry_unreachable: false` disables.
- cron/unreachable_retry.py: ladder, classification, plan/clear/will_retry
- cron/scheduler.py: flag unreachable failures in run_job; suppress interim
notice; thread model_unreachable through the fenced bookkeeping write
- cron/jobs.py: mark_job_run schedules/clears the ladder under the jobs lock
- docs: website/docs/user-guide/features/cron.md
Two invariant tests (red on main): the PKCE key lands as an api_key pool row that
resolve_provider("auto") picks up while the bare --api-key path keeps its default, and a forged
callback path is a 404 while the genuine nonce path yields the code. evals/openrouter_pkce_ab
drives the real auth_add_command against a local fake /api/v1/auth/keys (verifier check,
single-use codes) for legit / wrong-state / replayed-code / malformed-response / api-key-path.
Review follow-up. Two of the three items taken as written; the third declined
with a reason.
1. Taken. The reconcile semantics mean `patterns` may only ADD -- an entry left
out of it is not removed, because the on-disk list wins for anything this
process did not approve itself. Every caller in the tree is additive today,
so nothing breaks, but the signature does not say so. Stated in the
docstring, and pinned by
`test_a_caller_that_passes_a_smaller_set_does_not_remove` so a future
`allowlist remove` finds out here instead of in production.
NOT taken: the `reconcile: bool = True` opt-out. There is no caller that
wants it, and AGENTS.md:98-101 names exactly this -- "Speculative
infrastructure. Hooks, callbacks, or extension points with no concrete
consumer." The removal path is editing config.yaml, which the docstring now
says.
2. Taken. website/docs/user-guide/security.md, next to the existing
`hermes config edit` tip, which is where an operator reads about removing a
pattern: the list is read at startup, a pattern removed while a session is
running stays approved in that session until the next write or a restart,
and if it was removed for safety reasons, restart.
3. Taken. `test_save_failure_is_logged_not_raised` asserted non-raising but
never asserted the log its name promises. Now asserts
"Could not save allowlist" via caplog.

=== Summary: 1 files, 9 tests passed, 0 failed (100% complete) in 0.4s
Maintainer ruling: no new slash command for this. `display.vim_mode: true`
in config.yaml enables vi keybindings in the composer at startup; the
NORMAL/INSERT/REPLACE status-bar label stays. Removes the CommandDef, the
handler, its dispatch-table entry and slash-command docs; documents the key
under Display Settings.
- Relocate _handle_vim_command and _vim_mode_label onto
cli_status_bar_mixin.py (the mixin owning status-bar commands and
rendering) — the original targeted pre-decomposition cli.py; slash
dispatch picks the handler up by naming convention
- Wire the vim label into the current status-bar fragment builder
- Trim tests to 3 invariant tests per the salvage bar
- Document /vim in reference/slash-commands.md
Live E2E (tmux + PTY, temp HERMES_HOME): /vim toggles on, Esc/i flip
NORMAL/INSERT in the status bar, /vim off restores emacs bindings,
display.vim_mode persisted to config.yaml.
MiniMax Code CLI 0.3.1 added a status-line segment showing the git branch
for the current workspace. Hermes' status bar had no repo-awareness field.
Adds `git_branch` to display.status_bar.fields (opt-in only — the default
set never probes the filesystem). Reads .git/HEAD directly with a 5s
per-directory TTL cache (no subprocess per repaint); follows gitdir:
pointer files so worktrees/submodules resolve their private HEAD; a
detached HEAD renders the abbreviated commit.
Inspired by MiniMax Code CLI 0.3.1 changelog (agent.minimax.io/docs/changelog).
Port of https://github.com/achimala/dream-loop (MIT, 400+ stars in 48h).
An autonomous loop for building visually impressive 3D scenes/games:
generate photorealistic concept art, build (three.js/WebGL/Blender),
screenshot the live build, judge screenshot-vs-concept on a 5-tier score
ladder, iterate to convergence with explicit exit criteria.
Prose-only port rebound to Hermes-native tools: image_generate for
concept art, vision_analyze for judging (side-by-side composite
workaround documented), browser_exec capture_screenshot for live builds,
delegate_task for parallel asset work. Upstream ladder, failure modes,
time-budget and exit rules preserved. optional-skills/ placement.
Port from cline/cline#13827: foreign-session discovery hardcoded
~/.claude/projects and ~/.codex/sessions, so Claude Code installs using
CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR and Codex CLI installs using CODEX_HOME (both official
relocation vars the tools themselves honor, and which hermes_cli/auth_codex.py
already reads for credentials) silently found nothing to import.
_default_root() resolves each source's store from its env var, treating a
blank/whitespace value as unset so an empty override can never resolve to a
CWD-relative "projects" path. The _SOURCES tuple gained the env fields; the
browser sibling now reads the parser through the _parser() accessor instead
of a positional index that the wider tuple would have silently broken.
Live E2E: env-rooted Claude + Codex sessions discovered, imported, and
resumed; blank override falls back to ~; docs updated.
A community deep-dive found that running one never-ending gateway session for weeks means memory injection, session_search, and pre-reset distillation almost never fire, while token cost grows. Sessions doc stated conversations never expire but never explained why users should still create boundaries. Adds a Session hygiene subsection with the mechanism and a practical rule.
A provider whose backend keeps the response open without finishing (hanging
HTTP server, stuck SDK call) stalled the web_extract tool call — and with a
sync provider, the borrowed thread — indefinitely. The dispatch in
tools/web_tools_extract._dispatch_extract now runs under asyncio.wait_for with
web.extract_timeout (config.yaml, default 120s; 0 disables). On timeout the
tool returns structured per-URL error entries, and the one-shot keyless rescue
still gets its chance when eligible.
Salvaged from PR #57180 by @liuhao1024 (base predated the web_tools
decomposition; re-applied at the _dispatch_extract seam, env-var timeout
replaced with the web.* config section per the .env-is-for-secrets rule, and
the timeout path made rescue-aware).
Inspired by Claude Code 2.1.268: "Fixed WebFetch hanging indefinitely on a
server that keeps the response open without finishing; a fetch now fails
after 300 seconds."
Fixes#57155

Ports the system-atlas agent skill: one data.mjs file renders both an
interactive isometric HTML map (progressive-disclosure chapters, moving
data packets, question tracking by Q-ID) and a generated text twin
(SYSTEM.md) for the repo.
Why: architecture discussions that outgrow a single diagram — the skill
encodes hard-earned rules (max 3 structures per chapter, shapes+labels,
docs-policy ask before committing). Upstream 410 stars since Aug 20,

Port of https://github.com/yanliudesign/mono-color-skill (MIT, 2.9k
stars in 3 weeks). Generates original one-ink or controlled two-ink
editorial print images (risograph/duotone/monochrome poster aesthetic)

The drift-guard section only offered pin-or-disable; resnap is the middle
path (adopt the new default, stay unpinned). Same PR as the salvaged
feature per docs-in-same-PR policy.
A community write-up showed a real usage pattern: running Hermes on a messaging gateway for weeks without ever issuing /new. The memory docs never said that the recall loop (MEMORY.md/USER.md snapshot + session_search) only fires at session boundaries, and that gateway chats are intentionally one continuous session across restarts. Add a section spelling out why boundaries matter and recommending /new at natural break points, cross-linked to the session-continuity docs.
Ports the pr-lens agent skill: represent a diff or subsystem as one
graph.json document and render it as animated SVG diagrams via the MIT
npx CLI (@coldtea/pr-lens-cli), with optional opt-in publishing to a
shareable canvas link.
Why: PR review and architecture explanation keep producing hand-drawn
